1t appears that the Hon. Simon s. Brown
draws a salary of 5000 annually for his ardu-
GUS labors as secretary of tho Democratic
State Committee. Some of the Democracy
thinks he comes too high and are looking
about to see if they cannot find some place
for him under the government. They have
their eyes just at present concentrated on
the special agency of the internal revenue
department now held by General Sewall of
Bath, and are trying to prevail upon Com
missioner Miller to turn Sewall out and put
Brown in. The Cumberland county breth-
rem are, however, little Jealous of the
move. They say that too many Of the plums
have already fallen to Kennebec Democrats.
Pierce, the appraiser in the Portland Gus
tom house, is from Kennebec; so is Wood
man, the assistant appraiser; so also is
Henry Chase, the post office inspector.
Charley Morton, commissioner of naviga-
tion, halls from Augusta, and Browns son
has been appointed route agent. The
Cumberland county Democrats don't think
it Is fair that a county which always gives
overwhelming Republican majorities should
get the latest offices. The matter will
probably be discussed incidentally at a
meeting Of the Democratic State Committee
which is soon to be called to organize the
party in favor of the denomination of Cleve-
land.

fRANCKLYN STILL JAIL.
Sir Bacbe Cunsrd Charges Him with
swindling Him Out OF
100000.
IBy telegraph to the Dispatch.l

New YORK, October 21.-Charles G..
Francklyn, who was locked up late last
night in Ludlow-Street Jail, is still in
custody, having been unable to procure
the bail of 100000 required. The
suit in which his arrest was made
Is brought by Sir Bache Cunar1. The
complainant alleges that on Septem-
Der -, 1872, he engaged Francklyn as
his agent, and intrustcd to him the
management of an estate consisting o.
about 81 100000 worth of bonds and
other securities. October 6, 1888, he
gave him 100000 more. In July,
1885, Sir Bache demanded the return
of bis property, and on September 18th
FrancLlyn gave him S}23,G5 Sir
Rache claims that Francklyn is still in
debtod to him in the amount OF
s., CC0,0C0, the balance and accumulL-
tons OF interest.
Bache Nee. Whitlock, for the plain
tifl, svoars that on October g, 1883, he
gave to the defendant, as the business
agent of the plaintiff, 100000 in cash.
the plaintiffs portion Of the personal
estate Of his brother, Edward Cunard.
The plaintiff having need of large
sum Of money cabled the defendant
carly III 1885 to sell securities and
transmit the money. Defendant
failed 10 comply with this request. Sir
Baclc Cunard came TO this country in
June and made a demand in person for
tho return of his property. At the
time the defendant admitted that he
had converted to his owl use securities
to the amount of 300, 000, and was ul-
able TO deliver them to plaintiff. De
PENDANT requested plaintiff not 70 pro-
coed against him, saying that he would
he able in time to repay the full
amount. Relying upon this and not
wishing to disgrace Frlncklyn, who
was his cousin, Sir Bache trusted him
further.
The matter has been allowed to run
along until now. Francklyn is IN ar
rears to the amount Of -, $4,000. Mr..
Stillman, of Mr. Francklyn's counsel,
said the defence claimed that Sir Bache
Cunard and Mr.. Francklyn were Jointly
interested in business enterprises in
this country that the latter had lull
authority from the former for all
his acts that were now complained Of,
and that Sir Bache WAS new trying to
make coed his share Of losses incurred
ly demanding that Mr. Franckyn
should pay them.

WASHINGTON. October 2l.-Civil-Ser-
yice-Commissioner Edgerton, during
an interview had with him by an Ass0-

if in his opinion Government clerks
and other employees had light, uni
bridged by the ciyil-seryice law, to as
sociato themselves together rs a society
or association for the purpose OF ad-
yancing the interests of any political
party and whether such societies or
associations have a right to assess their
meLibers or receive from them contli-
buttons for political purposes.
"Unquestionably they have That
right, replied Mr.. Edgerton. When
a person has successfully passed the
civil service examination aud has been
duly certified and permanently APP
pointed to classified service, Their au-
thority ceases and his action thereafter
is controlled by the appointing power
From that moment his action is outside
Of the control, authority, influence, or
power Of the Ciyil-Ser'ice Commission.
He is entirely outside Of their iurisdic
ton"
"But, inquired the reporter, "is
not the commission charged with the
emf rcemcnt Of the ciyil-seryice law,
and does not that law prohibit such
contributions 2"
Certainly" said Mr.. EdgerIon,
"but that law has nothing to do with
individuals OutSide Of their Offices or
official positions. Nothing is sGid abont

licensed as a detective association nor

ment was entered upon it in the Court
Of Common Pleas Of Indiana county,
and the parties on the same day having
been married, they betook themselves
to Young township to spend the honey
moon. There they resided for some
tine and then removed to the former
home of the bride at Blackjack Station,
where he shortly after deserted her,
and since that time they have lived
apart "
William Cunningham fled an ailill-
Wit OF defence 10 the suit in the
court below, in which he alleged that
his wife refused to live with HIM on
his farm in Young township, but per-
sisted in returning to her former hone
at Blackjack, where they lived together
for two months, until Cunningham
Was obliged to leave the house, be
cause, as he alleges, his wife would
scold him night and day, would order
him out Of the house, AMI threaten %
strike him with poker
The Common Pleas Court held that
al action Of this nature could not be
brought by wife against her husband.
Mrs. Cunningham claims that this
ruling isan error, and therefore appeals
to The Supreme Court.
